they come from Indonesia and the Philipines. They can take a wide range of pH, from soft to hard.
As for quantity, they are fan filters so do best in a mature tank with higher flow.

Monday!

Next Peru shipment should be coming in end of this week as well. I am *hoping* to get that in, and amanos, cards, some more shrimp, and brigittae all by next monday. Cross your fingers. It is pretty likely this sale will be extended since my luck at getting stuff in on time has been crappy.

Last sale of the year! Bonus drawing for gift certificate

I am taking orders to be shipped the week of December 2nd. All orders placed and paid for by Wednesday, November 28th will receive the discounts outlined below! Reduced discounts will be applied after Wednesday.

My stock list will continue to expand over the next week, so check back for updated availability. I will also be doing a drawing for winners of two prizes. Details following the discount information.

I will not be shipping after December 17, until after the Christmas holiday- shipping becomes too unpredictable. This will be my last sale of the year.

The discounts are as following:

Spend up to $50 on livestock purchases and receive 5% off and $5 off shipping as well as an entry into the drawing.

Spend $50 or more on livestock purchases and receive 10% off and $5 off shipping as well as an entry into the drawing.

Orders over $150 will receive $10 off their livestock purchase and free 2nd day shipping, and get two entries into the drawing.

Any orders of only Repashy Superfoods will receive free shipping, but will not be entered in the drawing.

Everyone who makes a purchase from now until December 15th will be entered into a drawing for a giveaway. I will be giving away two prizes. The first winner chosen will win a gift certificate for $50 to be announced on Christmas Eve. The second winner chosen will win their choice of t-shirts- either "I got crabs from msjinkzd" or "Invertebrates by msjinkzd" t-shirts, available in the color of their choice and a tank badge/bumper sticker.

Additional livestock received this week (the oil/honeycomb catfish, marbled hatchets, and Parotocinclus) will be added as I get them.

PLEASE NOTE THE ORDERS WILL BE SHIPPED THE WEEK OF DECEMBER 2ND. This is because I am picking freight up all over the place this week, and have personal responsibilities that will make me unable to process large volumes of orders this week. Please email msjinkzd@gmail.com, or private message through the site, with any additional questions
